    i hate feeling conspiratorial talking about this, but there’s been signs of electoral fraud (different from voter fraud (which is generally just one person). it happens at the other end of the system and is much worse) in that win. i have not had the time to delve deeply into it, but shit got a certain stink

      There was definite overt fraud with Elon (doing what was “apparently legally distinct” from) paying people to vote for Trump. And this time around they are overtly using their powers to rig the rules in their favor.

      So if and when it comes out that less overt but far more nefarious electoral fraud occurred, I wont be too surprised.

      And honestly, the magats (intentionally or not) played a brilliant hand by making sure claims of election fraud had become synonymous with insane conspiracy theorists in the 2020 election.

      But I agree, it stinks bad.

      There is definitely stuff (relatively) silently going through the courts about it. But we really won’t be able to do much about it until a new administration gets in.

      It’ll be good reflection one day, but it doesn’t change much in the present.

      Take the evidence to court. Otherwise, rumors and feelings of elections being rigged only help amplify the asshole’s Big Lie that it’s rigged.
